Ds got 2.5 Bs and the rest Cs - not enough to get back into his grammar school. He's devastated - was predicted A*for Bio and Chem, other As and Bs with a C for Eng Lang. He worked hard but grammar maybe didn't give the right kind of support. The other schools and 6th form college in our town are not an option but there's a college in the nearest big town (20 miles). Alternatively we could all eat cheap food and never go out and we could probably stretch to a private school with a specialist dyslexia centre. My heart and head say go for the private option - he's really bright but suffers in exams - but dh is obviously worried about money and comes from a whole different place education wise. Anyone been here and gone in one direction or the other?
